Video game platform Roblox has announced plans to open an office in Turkey after the country imposed a ban on the platform, citing harmful content for children. This decision comes as Roblox seeks to address the concerns raised by Turkish authorities and restore its services in the region, according to a report by Reuters.
In August, Turkey’s Minister of Justice declared that Roblox would be blocked in the country following a court order.
Roblox has expressed its commitment to collaborating with Turkish authorities to meet the specific needs of the country. The company aims to make a positive impact on Turkey’s social development by focusing on education, innovation, and meaningful connections through its platform.
Additionally, Roblox revealed plans to hire dedicated staff and open a local office in Turkey. The company also intends to employ moderators fluent in the local language to ensure better content management.
